I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to build a meaningful and rewarding life, but sometimes, this can feel out of reach, confusing and even impossible. Regardless of whether you're dealing with ongoing mental health concerns, are feeling disconnected after a stressful life change, or just feel stuck, I'm here to help you start building the future you deserve. As an occupational therapist for over ten years who has specialized in mental health I come to this space from a skills-based approach. I work with diverse families and individuals (adults and teenagers 12-17 years old) in a safe and nonjudgemental space.
As a therapist with advanced training in DBT, I can assist you in addressing a multitude of concerns such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, process addictions as well as other unwanted behaviours that are pulling you away from your long term goals. There is now a growing body of evidence that DBT is effective in treating various mental health concerns.
I want to learn to understand you and your life and what matters most to you so I can help you to live a life in alignment with your values. Feel free to reach out to me so we can see if we are the right fit and so we can start working together to build a life that is worth living for you!
